St. Augustine


Wednesday we drove up to St. Augustine. St. Augustine is the oldest city in the United States and on the Atlantic Coast in Florida. It used to be a Spanish settlement and there is still a spanish quarter with lots of colonial buildings.


There also is a fort- built to keep the English people out of town. It worked pretty well since you really have the idea you're in a Mediteranean city instead of an American town.


What I really liked here was that they had lots of little stores, bakeries and cafees.

Nice little forgetten places where also to be found in St. Augustine, just had to pay attention to the surroundings.
